Cooper Invites Student Submissions for Congressional App Challenge

All Middle & High School Students in Middle Tennessee Eligible to Participate

WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper (TN-05) today invited eligible Middle Tennessee students to submit their work for consideration in this year’s nationwide Congressional App Challenge.

The Congressional App Challenge is an annual effort to encourage students to learn computer programming through annual district-wide competitions hosted by members of Congress. It encourages student participation in technology and math programs by offering students a chance to create and code.

All middle and high school students in Middle Tennessee are eligible and encouraged to participate.

“Brilliant students are turning Middle Tennessee into America’s next tech hub,” Rep. Cooper said. “Every time I visit a school I’m amazed at the skills I see. Let’s show the world our expertise!”
